The widespread theme revolving around the great flood in various world mythologies often represents a form of divine judgment, renewal, or cleansing. Many cultures, including those of Mesopotamia, the Bible, and Indian epics, recount stories of a catastrophic flood that wipes out humanity or a significant part of it, followed by a renewal of the earth. These narratives typically involve a chosen figure, such as Noa or Manu, who saves a remnant of life. The flood motif reflects human concerns with morality, destruction, and the hope for a fresh start.
